Turns out this episode is dedicated strictly to the fabulous works of Mia Michaels, meaning all of the choreography has been danced before on the "SYTYCD" stage, and become some of the most famous ever on the show.

This week was better than last week, but not as good as the first. We finally got some standing ovations, a routine I want to watch on repeat and of course, two more dancers were eliminated.

So here is how the show worked last night: The 10 couples proceed as if this were a normal performance show until the last 20 minutes when the bottom six were revealed. So who went home?

Overall, it was a really strong first episode. All received good reviews, but some better than others. Now, the dancers are going to have to spend the week practicing for next week and then get eliminated? That can't be right.

It's the 200th episode of "SYTYCD," the first live episode of the season, Zooey Deschanel is the guest judge and the BIG reveal of the Top 20. I am one pinata away from a party over here.

The drama-level was pretty high (though not nearly as nuclear as the promos promised) and the dancers were dropping like flies almost instantly. They really got down to business, eliminating contestants from the get-go.

Leroy Martinez is exactly the reason I love this show. This big teddy bear of a guy with a big heart and big dreams showed some seriously impressive dance moves, fully stocked with back flips and head spins

My one complaint for this Atlanta episode was the number of super incredible dancers they quickly breezed through because there was just too much talent for a two-hour show.

Sam Lenarz's audition gave me my first set of head-to-toe goosebumps this season. Her heartbreaking backstory and her song choice were just the perfect combination to elicit a hair-raising reaction to her performance.
